InterventionsqNo cure possible to date for food allergy
conditions
qAvoidance of the Food where the Allergenic Ingredient is Present, remains the main risk management strategy
qLabelling of Prepackaged Foods and Accurate Information on menus remains the cornerstone of regulatory interventions guided by Codex…

Paraphrasing the Codex Standard
The Presence Of Priority (Allergenic) Food Should ALWAYS Be Subject To Declaration In
The List Of Ingredients On A Food Label

Codex List Of Priority AllergensqCodex Developed A List Of Foods And Ingredients That Are Known To
Cause Hypersensitivity And Should Always Be Declared:§ Cereals Containing Gluten i.e. Wheat, Rye, Barley, Oats, Spelt Or Their
Hybridized StrIains And Products Of These§ Crustacea And Products Of These§ Egg And Egg Products§ Fish And Fish Products§ Peanuts, Soybeans, And Products Of These§ Milk And Milk Products (Lactose Included) § Tree Nuts And Nut Products§ Sulfites In Concentrations Of 10 Mg/Kg Or More
qThis List Was Adopted As A Final Text By The Codex AlimentariusCommission (CAC) In June 1999, With The Understanding That Future Additions And/Or Deletions From The List Will Be Considered By The CCFL Taking Into Account Advice Received From JECFA

Changes Witnessed Over the Last 2 Decades
qFood Allergen Labeling requirements became a reality and are implemented
qNew measures of preventive controls targeting allergens as a “food hazard” are being considered§ New tools are being designed and implemented
qEnhanced industry awareness of allergen related issues

But… …Limited Guidance on ….
qManagement of Cross-Contamination and non-
deliberate presence of allergens
qHow should regulators and industry address
risks associated with such occurrences ?
q Guidance on the Adequate use of
“Precautionary Statements”

Precautionary Statements ... Lost their EffectivenessqProliferation Of Statements Has
Trivialized Their Meaning
qReduced Trust In Food Labels
qAdded Number Of Incidents Related To “Risky” Behaviours
qConfusion Amongst Consumers And The Clinical Community

WHY?qIdentifying Food Allergen Management
On Codex Priorities Is Needed:
§ To Support Enhanced Protection Of Allergic Consumers Internationally
§ To Level the Playing Field Amongst Food Regulators
§ To Support A More Predictable Environment For Industry

CCFH… Responded qAustralia and the UK led an Electronic WG that
developed a “Code of Practice on Food Allergen Management for Food Business Operators”
§ The proposed draft was moved for consideration at step 5 at the upcoming Codex Alimentarius Commission
§ CCFH called for an expert consultation to be held by FAO /WHO and address some question such as : o Thresholds for food allergens “below which the
majority of allergic consumers would not suffer an adverse reaction”

CCFL Followed Suit qDiscussion Paper on Allergen Labelling – prepared by Australia, the
US and the UK§ Calls for new work to … develop guidance on precautionary allergen or
advisory labelling.§ Calls for a joint FAO/WHO expert Consultation… § Joining forces with CCFL.

The marvels of Technology ….Offers new Perspectives for Enhanced Traceability to
Consumers
qDocumentation of Food Production Processes (through Blockchain technology or other IT enabled approach will enable to document the life cycle of the product, up to the consumer)…§ Ability to trace the product forward in a most efficient
and effective way
§ Most effective recall of products

Technology… Direct and Personalized Information…
New Purchasing Practice & Labeling ToolsqReliance on e-Labels
§ Personalized “Reading” of Labeling Informationo Information on food products are comprehensive
yet for a given consumer, only the important details are showcased
§ Products to be avoided are clearly identified through “bar code reading” or other technology enabled tool
qe-Commerce§ Allows access to a section of food products
that are adapted to a given health profile
